ZTE Open C review

Firefox OS touting bargain phone that falls short

Very cheap ; MicroSD slot ; Straightforward Firefox OS

Awful camera ; Sluggish performance ; Lack of apps

Budget hardware from ZTE and a fledgling OS from Firefox do not make for a great partnership. The price is right for this entry-level smartphone, but the camera is bad, general performance feels sluggish, and the platform lacks apps.

ZTE Open C (Unlocked)

The Firefox OS-powered ZTE Open C is a rare high-quality, sub-$100 smartphone, but Windows Phone and Android are right on its tail.

Inexpensive for an unlocked smartphone. Lack of apps less relevant because every website is an "app."

Very few good games. Mediocre call quality. Poor camera.

I'd be remiss not to mention that Firefox OS will probably get lots of upgrades quickly, as there are no carriers in the way. The OS has already gone from version 1.0 to 1.3 in less than a year. Camera and Media Audio and video recording and playback...

ZTE Open C Firefox Phone review

ZTE Open C review: Low cost, at the price of performance

How low-cost can you go and still make a smartphone? With the ZTE Open C, the answer is: pretty darn low. With its inexpensive parts, bare-bones specs, and Firefox's entirely Web-based OS, the ZTE Open C slides into eBay for an incredibly...

The ZTE Open C is ultraffordable, comes in three colors, and fits easily into pockets and purses.

Typing on the 4-inch screen feels cramped, performance is slow, and the camera lacks auto-focus. Speakerphone was virtually unusable.

Although it's one of the cheapest smartphones around, you're better off saving your money for a slightly pricier handset.

ZTE Open C review

It's not every day we get to see a brand new operating system inthe mobile phone world. With BlackBerry recently gone, now we havea new system based on the Firefox browser. It's basic and cheap,aimed primarily at developing markets, but does it have...

More powerful processor than expected, very cheap

Basic screen and camera, limited apps in the Marketplace

The Firefox Open C isn't designed to set the tech world alight.But as a proof of concept it's certainly on the way. It's ultracheap of course, with a deliberately low spec. But it works wellenough, offers and alternative to the big boys and there's...
